Apple's next press event happens on Monday, March 21 at the company's campus in Cupertino, California. We're going to be in the audience to report all of the announcements as they happen.

We've already talked about what to expect, but to recap: Apple is expected to announce a new 4-inch iPhone that combines the size of the iPhone 5S with features from the iPhone 6 and 6S. It will also supposedly be upgrading the 9.7-inch iPad, giving it updated internals, a Smart Connector, and Apple Pencil support imported from the iPad Pro. The Apple Watch may get some love in the form of new band colors and combinations, but rumors say not to expect a full hardware refresh just yet.

We'll probably also hear about a smattering of minor software updates, including iOS 9.3, OS X 10.11.4, tvOS 9.2, and WatchOS 2.2. Follow along by visiting the link above. The event begins at 10am PDT (1pm EDT, 5pm GMT).
